There is a wonderful conservative to support. There are those who support Duncan Hunter, and those who seem to be using him and threatening third party if he doesn't win the primary.

I agree - Hunter would be a good choice. I just wish he had some executive experience. IMO the best choice is Mark Sanford, but he's made his intentions clear.

The primary and the general are two very different elections.

Be that as it may, a significant portion of the base will not vote for a social liberal. And they can't be made to vote for the social liberal by casting out scary images of a President Hillary; that was the strategy in 2006 and it failed miserably.

You can call it stupid, shortsighted, arrogant, etc. But it won't change the simple reality of my statement.

And if by chance this candidate does win, folks had better consider the down-ticket races. Do you think Congress is likely to become more conservative when large groups of conservatives sit the election out?

It would be a bloodbath of epic proportions....

Please don't misquote.
I said selfish, irresponsible and suspect to vote third party.

Duncan Hunter does NOT advocate nonvotes or third party.
I do not believe any so-called supporter of his who claims otherwise.
